| Abstract | The global food industry is crucial in promoting sustainability, contributing to environmental degradation but also driving positive change. This review paper explores the significance, methodologies and recent research of food industries in promoting sustainability. The food industry faces sustainability challenges due to climate change, resource depletion, food security and health concerns. Policy makers, consumers and stakeholders are pushing businesses to reduce carbon footprint, adopt ethical sourcing, minimize waste and improve nutritional quality. This paper presents a compiled information of review of literature related to sustainability transition in food industry published worldwide. Shifting consumer preferences towards sustainable and healthy diets is a crucial aspect of the food industry's role in sustainable transition. Promoting plant based diets, reduced food waste and adopting circular economy principles can significantly contribute to sustainable consumption patterns. The food industry is making significant strides in sustainability, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, improving supply chain transparency and promoting responsible sourcing, but challenges persist. This review paper serves as both a clarion call and a roadmap, emphasizing the inextricable link between the food industry and sustainability. |
